CD Laboratory for Steel Industry Signal Processing and Machine Learning

Head of Laboratory Dr. Lang analysing measurement data
A steel strip goes through many process steps during its production. Identifying problems in the production process at a very early stage is one of the goals of the CD Laboratory.

The aim of this CD Laboratory is to advance and improve the digitisation of processes in the steel industry. Many industrial plants are already monitored by sensors of all kinds, but the sensor data collected often contains significant noise due to the harsh environment. Research in this CD Laboratory aims to improve the usability of such noisy signal data. The research results should be widely applicable to a variety of plants and processes by identifying recurring signal characteristics, e.g. periodic interference signals, across many measuring points and searching for broadly applicable solutions.

Steel coils must arrive at the customer in perfect condition. Defects could leave tiny irregularities in the steel coil.
